This was one of the best Airbnb’s I’ve stayed in! 5/5 would absolutely recommend to others traveling (exception for families with children, see below). The apartment is very accurate to the pictures, with a stylish interior and good lightening from the windows. The building looks a little older and plain when you’re on your way in, but stepping into the apartment you find a friendly, comfortable living space. The appliances are all modern and all amenities you could need (shower stuff, towels, laundry, full-kitchen, etc) are available! The bed is quite comfortable and plenty of pillows. We didn’t use the tv, but the WiFi worked great. Orathai is a very organized and responsive hosts, giving us a plethora of information and making sure we were all settled and clear on instructions. Any questions we had over the trip were answered promptly!
The immediate surroundings of the building is more quiet, but the general area is very active. You won’t be bothered much, but the apartment is close by a major red light district (Nana Plaza) so you will see a lot of bars and women lining the street further up the road. I wouldn’t recommend for families, but couples or adults traveling will have no issue. Certainly not a sketchy area, there are many major hotels nearby like the JW Marriott. A quick 5-8 minute walk from the BTS and other public transport so you can easily get around the city, same line as the Chatuchak weekend market and Siam (shopping district) so I would suggest using the sky train when traffic is heavy and you can’t take a taxi or tuk tuk.
